Thank you very much for that tip - it worked perfectly! I think that this is
a bug in Word - I noticed that if you try to record this macro, it uses the
function Selection.PasteAndFormat rather than Selection.PasteSpecial.

I really appreciate the help - this had been driving me crazy for quite some
time.

Maybe you didn't program it as well as you thought? Try

Sub PasteUnfText()
On Error GoTo oops
Selection.PasteSpecial DataType:=wdPasteText, Placement:= _
wdInLine
End
oops:
Beep
End Sub

In my old version of Word (2000) I programmed a small macro that did
"Paste Special - Unformatted Text" - I assigned this to a button and
used it whenever pasting text into a document from another source
(e.g. the Web). Now I have Word 2003 and this same macro doesn't
work. I can program it fine, but then when I run it, the text gets
pasted in with its own formatting.
